O’brien Law Firm

Dennis O’brien grew up in Dublin, Ga and graduated from the University Of Georgia. He served in the National Guard and was called to active duty in support of Operation Desert Shield/Storm. He later became a Memphis Police officer because he wanted to help people. While in Memphis, O’Brien served as a field training officer and spent several years in a plain clothes task force.

When people find out he used to be a police officer, they often ask how he could possibly be a criminal defense lawyer.

“The answer is simple,” he says, with a laugh. “I represent clients, not causes. Every case and every client are different.” He goes on to explain that there is one common thread that runs through all of his cases and all of his clients: the government is against them.

“The government wants to fine them, supervise them, and even cage them away in prison,” he explains. There are countless opportunities to build winning defenses, and O’Brien knows which ones to pursue in each case.

O’Brien is masterful at poking holes in police procedures, validity of evidence, and prosecutorial tactics. A police officer trained lawyer is a perfect combination for your defense attorney. No matter what your situation, Dennis O’Brien is here to help.
